An effective greenhouse is the engine of your business. Without the proper environment, you can encounter many issues that harm your crop. Investing in greenhouse environmental control systems can simplify or automate many essential aspects of growing, from nutrient supplementation to temperature management.

But what should you consider before choosing an environmental control system?

Every greenhouse is unique, and every space in it serves a specific purpose. Depending on your crop, climate and equipment layout your needs as a grower will vary significantly from the next. Still, every cultivator should assess several factors to determine which control systems suit their business, including budget, crop value, and desired complexity of features.

It is very important to understand that an improved or updated control system is only as good as the equipment it is controlling.

Types Of Environmental Control Systems

Greenhouse environmental controls come in several general categories based on purpose, cost, and features. Depending on the scale or layout of your greenhouse, you may need more or less automation.
